27 Break the trick out of the sheath

I saw that behind the hut under the moonlight, it was also the backyard of the entire courtyard, which was originally planted with some vegetables and flowers, but it had already been stripped of by people at this time. And the back door of this hut, also two dilapidated wooden doors, had been opened at this time, and were swaying back and forth in the middle of the night, making a hoarse sound. But looking at the entire backyard, there was no one at all, and there was not a single footprint on the dirt floor in the courtyard. Xie Yixiang couldn't help but be frightened, and said in her heart: "Is the other party a human or a ghost? Even if Uncle Zhuang, who is known as the number one in the world of light skills, is resurrected, it is impossible for him to slip away without a trace in the blink of an eye, and not even a single footprint has been left!"

As she thought about it, she jumped onto the roof of the hut, thinking that the other party had immediately jumped to the roof to hide after pushing open the back door. Who knew that under the moonlight, I saw that the roof was an ordinary sloping roof, sloping down from the middle ridge to both sides, covered with rough green tiles, but where was there any human figure?

Xie Yixiang knew that she had met a master, so she hurriedly secretly guarded herself. She floated off the roof to the ground, continued to cover her mouth and nose with a silk scarf, and then cautiously entered the room through the open back door. I saw that this hut was not large, and there were only two rooms in it, one on the left and one on the right, separated by a wooden wall. The small room corresponding to the back door, where the kitchen is located, is boiling a large pot of boiling water, but the water has not yet boiled, but the bottom of the pot is covered with dense bubbles, and on the ground in the kitchen, a middle-aged man in shabby clothes is falling to the ground. Xie Yixiang didn't dare to relax her vigilance, so she didn't bend down to look, but vaguely heard that the middle-aged man was still snorting, obviously just falling asleep. She gently kicked the middle-aged man's body with her foot, but the other party did not react at all, but it seemed to be a symptom of a misty incense.

At that moment, Xie Yixiang bypassed the wooden wall in the middle and entered a large room next to her, and the fragrance of osmanthus suddenly came to her nose, although she had covered her mouth and nose with a silk scarf, she was still inevitably a little dizzy. Looking at the furnishings in the room, it was connected to the main door in front of the hut, and at this time a wooden table in the room had been moved to the door, and the two wooden doors were blocked from the inside, and half a candle was still burning on them, but it had been shaken down by the force of his own kicking on the door, and it was rolling down to the table at this time, dripping wax oil on the ground.

At the other end of the room, there was an old wooden bed in the corner, next to it were several crooked cabinets, and in the other corner were piles of miscellaneous items. At the foot of the wooden bed, a middle-aged woman was lying on her back, her body in a "big" position, her chest rising and falling slightly, and her face was flushed, and not far from the middle-aged woman, there was another girl of six or seven years old curled up on the ground, and her snoring could be faintly heard. Obviously, the two women in the room, one big and one young, were also the same as the middle-aged man in the kitchen, who were drugged by the scent of osmanthus in the house, so they couldn't wake up, but fortunately, they didn't worry about their lives.

Xie Yixiang saw the situation in the house clearly, and her heart was already pounding. This is clearly a family of three, and it is also a husband and wife with a girl of six or seven years old, which is completely in line with the goal of the "human kitchen"; coupled with the drug of this osmanthus fragrance, nine times out of ten it is the "human kitchen" that he has been tracking. Fortunately, he found it in time, so that the murderer in the house didn't have time to attack the family of three, so he hurriedly pushed open the back door and fled.

only hated that the murderer's movements were as fast as a ghost, and he actually escaped under his nose, Xie Yixiang sighed secretly, and had to put the knife into the sheath. Only then did she realize that under the wooden table at the door, there was an incense burner the size of a rice bowl, and green smoke was coming out of the empty space of the lid. She hurriedly raised her foot and kicked down the incense burner, but inside was a half-burning incense thread, which was exactly the same as the incense thread found in the man's house surnamed Chen in Zhuji before, which was a mystical incense soaked in sweat medicine. In this way, it was further confirmed that all this was indeed done by the "human kitchen", Xie Yixiang was shocked and angry, and hurriedly trampled out this half of the incense line.

Then she went to see the situation of the two women in the room, one older and one younger, and also wanted to see if this six or seven-year-old girl was the missing daughter of the Li Butcher's family that she had been looking for. If the girl in the house is really the girl in her portrait, then she is very likely to be an accomplice of the "human kitchen", and many clues should be found from her. Who knew that Xie Yixiang had just taken two steps, and suddenly heard a soft sound of "swish", and the chaotic departure that had already been in the sheath actually came out of the sheath on its own and fell straight into her hands.

You must know that Xie Yixiang's chaotic separation was given by the deceased master Sword King, and it has always been quite spiritual. Coming out of the sheath like this is clearly a warning to her, reminding her that something dangerous is about to happen. Xie Yixiang held the knife in his hand, only to feel the cold sweat on his body, soaking his close-fitting clothes, and scolded in his heart: "I am really confused! The back door of the house was pushed open, and I subconsciously thought that the murderer was trying to escape through the back door, and immediately chased after him, but who knew that there was no one to see. You must know that there is no such elusive light work in the world? This is clearly the murderer's suspicion, which makes me mistakenly think that he has escaped, and thus deceives me from this place. And this murderer must still be in this room at this time!"

Thinking of this, although Xie Yixiang was already creepy, her face tried to remain calm. Whether this "human kitchen" is a man or a woman, old or young, or whether it is the old man who walked with the girl in Dongyang Pass and the portrait, he still can't be sure. What's more, now that the enemy is dark and I am clear, if I rashly search in the house, I will inevitably suffer, so it is better to make a plan and lure the snake out of the hole.

At that moment, Xie Yixiang deliberately stomped her foot and said to herself: "Fortunately, this family is safe and sound." From Haozhou six years ago to Ningyi City today, you still fled to the ends of the earth, and tonight I will arrest you if I say anything!" With that, she took a heavy step, left the hut through the back door, and chased straight into the depths of the night.

This is naturally Xie Yixiang deliberately acting to show the murderer hiding in the house, and when she pretended to chase a dozen steps away, she immediately jumped to the roof of a house next to her, and then used the "Luoxia Lonely Bird" method to the extreme, and where she landed, she didn't make the slightest movement, stepped on the nearby roof and circled around, and returned to the roof of the hut in the courtyard. And in this process, she also used the magic power of "Poor Thousand Miles", and her two eyes never left the room for a moment, lest the murderer in the house escape in this moment.

Then Xie Yixiang quietly leaned down on the ridge of this hut, and used the gentlest technique to uncover a crack in the thickness of a finger of a piece of green tile; she was afraid that the moonlight would shine into the house through this gap and be seen by the murderer hiding in the shadows, so she immediately put her face on it, and looked through this gap, so she quietly observed the movement in the room.
